@TAB I wont do keto, its mainly high in fats and zero carbs. The recipes look amazing though I must say. I did look into it and while there are no longitudinal studies of people who have done keto we do know historically that high fat diets have led to or exacerbate insulin resistance and cause diabetes, blood thickening, heart disease, adrenal fatigue and stroke. I think keto is just a new spin on an old idea. I dont trust the university studies on it.

@TAB please dont take my comments the wrong way. What I do know about published studies is they spit out the results they want so the universities can get funding. So its not a genuine study at all. The results are predetermined from the start so the university produces the results they want to secure $$$

are you sure you have diabetes @SmilingGecko what type do you have ?
I have known people who were type2 who went to type1 etc
sorry you are not well.
my mother and her brother both got diabetes, yet would never deny themselves on special occasions.(and manipulate things with insulin.)
sounds like your affliction is way worse then Type 1
do you have hepatitus or pancreatic cancer as well?
I think I would eat sugar if did not have long to live, say last 10 years of Life .. lol

@TAB I have type 2 diabetes and was influenced by my diabetes educator to be strict to begin with. My diabetes isnt bad but just dont want the risk. I have spoken to dieticians about it and they were more lax with what you eat. Some are more restrictive than others. I had one dietician expecting me to eat chia for breakfast lol But I like it well controlled and keeping the blood sugars down. I dont have hepatitis or pancreatic cancer. But yes there are some people out there that like to eat things that they crave that may spike it. I just prefer the health lifestyle I lead as its treated other health conditions I had more effectively. It may be strict but its made illnesses I had treatable. Its just a way of life for me now and I tend to like it. Dont want the hassle

No I forgot to make an appt @SmilingGecko . And I’m too tired now. Will try to do it tomorrow. The acupuncture place isn’t automated but it’s only 2 minute walk so will walk down and see if I can get in straight away. I get tired and can’t do anything at this time of day. Hope your day has been ok. Struggled to put bowl down for puss. Uncomfortable in any position. Thinking back will be worse tomorrow. I’m so annoyed at myself for trying to lift box. Stupid.

I understand @GezzaP my chiro does walk-ins you may be in luck. Sorry you are in so much pain. I cant begin to understand how much pain you are experiencing right now! My back is weak too. I'm just glad for every day I'm not in pain. Things like this happen, dont beat yourself up. If your back wasn't playing up now you would have had another episode later. Just be more vigilant in future. My back goes into spasms several times a year and gets pinched nerves and all kinds of stuff going on. I hope you can try and get some sleep somehow tonight in a relatively comfortable spot laying down. It even affects your sleep! Theres no escaping back pain ffs!
